1. Tachometer
Indicates the engine speed in
revolutions per minute
(RPM x 1000).
2. Voltmeter
When the vehicle is in the RUN state, the gauge
indicates the electrical system voltage. The
pointer should stay within the normal range if the
battery is charged. If the pointer moves to either
extreme left or right and remains there during
normal driving, the electrical system should be
serviced.
3. Instrument Cluster Display
When the appropriate conditions exist, this display
shows the instrument cluster display messages
Ú page 104.
The display always shows one of the main menu
item after ignition is placed on.
4. Oil Pressure Gauge
The pointer should always indicate the oil pres-
sure when the engine is running. A continuous
high or low reading under normal driving condi-
tions may indicate a lubrication system malfunc-
tion. Immediate service should be obtained from
an authorized dealer.
5. Speedometer
Indicates vehicle speed.
6. Temperature Gauge
The gauge pointer shows engine coolant tempera-
ture. The pointer positioned within the normal
range indicates that the engine cooling system is
operating satisfactorily.
The gauge pointer will likely indicate a higher
temperature when driving in hot weather, up
mountain grades, or when towing a trailer. It
should not be allowed to exceed the upper limits
of the normal operating range.
7. Fuel Gauge
The pointer shows the level of fuel in the fuel tank
when the ignition is in the ON/RUN position.
The fuel pump symbol points to the
side of the vehicle where the fuel door
is located.
WARNING!
A hot engine cooling system is dangerous. You or others
could be badly burned by steam or boiling coolant. It is
recommended to call an authorized dealer for service if
your vehicle overheats
Ú page 396.
CAUTION!
Driving with a hot engine cooling system could damage
your vehicle. If the temperature gauge reads “H,” pull
over and stop the vehicle. Idle the vehicle with the air
conditioner turned off until the pointer drops back into
the normal range. If the pointer remains on the “H,”
turn the engine off immediately and call an authorized
dealer for service.
